You are what you eat, so what you put into your body matters. A fantastic way to ensure that you are putting healthy, beneficial fuel into your body is eating organic food. Heavenly Island Lifestyle knows that the way your food is grown can impact your health, which is why they serve food made with local ingredients in Waikiki. They’ve shared a few of the benefits that you can expect from adding their cuisine to your diet.

Why Eat Organic Food?

1. Chemical-Free

Much of the non-organic produce people eat has had chemicals added to it such as pesticides, herbicides, and fungicides. These chemicals protect the food from insects and diseases, but the residue is left on the food and can be ingested by those who eat it. Organic growers use only natural solutions, so you can trust the food you’re eating is not coated with harmful chemicals. In addition, organically raised animals are not given growth hormones or antibiotics.

Studies have shown that organic food tends to have more nutrients than their non-organic counterparts. For example, you can expect your organic meat and milk to have a higher concentration of omega-3 fatty acids. A diet rich in omega-3 fatty acids helps reduce the risk of heart disease, cancer, and arthritis while improving cognitive and behavioral function.

3. Fresh

Regular food is coated with preservatives so it can last longer while being transported long distances. Organic food isn’t given these preservatives, so it tends to come from a local farm in much less time. The result is fresher ingredients that come from a farm near you. Organic food is the real “farm-to-table” experience.
